Compared with postoperative stereotactic radiation therapy, an investigational intraoperative RT approach could significantly reduce local tumor recurrence and improve survival in patients with newly diagnosed operable brain metastases.
New findings could shift the standard approach to preventing brain metastases in SCLC, particularly as modern MRI allows clinicians to detect and treat brain disease earlier.
The imaging agent could potentially help doctors characterize a malignancy's aggression and identify lesions with a higher likelihood of invasion or metastasis.
A new review led by UCLA researchers examines the utility of commercially available AI tools for screening mammography and evidence surrounding their ability to detect interval cancers.
The study, which will be funded by a $2.3 million grant from the U.S. Department of Defense, will harness the power of advanced MRI technology to visualize the brain in a way that has not previously been possible.
New research refutes the notion that parts of the brain controlling specific extremities remap themselves following amputation, which would prevent patients from feeling pain associated with the removed appendage.
Researchers at the University of Edinburgh found that cats with dementia, like humans, have protein buildup in synapses that impacts cognitive function and memory.
